Higher Education Catalog and Curriculum Management Solutions Reviews and Ratings

Jenzabar has been our SIS since 1998. We came on board as a customer as a CMDS customer. I'm in the registrar's office and we only use this as our official record for the students. I highly recommend this system. I know it can do much more than we currently use. My recommendation is to have all departments use as the same time and if possible, when needing additional products, go with the Jenz partners so that you will know all systems work with each other.

Overall, my experience with Ellucian Banner have been positive. The student information system (SIS) allowed for seamless transactions and real-time updates being reflected. I've used Banner at multiple employers and appreciate that the interface was always consistent, even with enhancements and other customizations being made.

This is an amazing platform to keep track of our and peers timesheets data and also helps my team to correctly record all the company expenses they have made.

Training for our team member has been thorough. Much better and easier to track changes. Digarc also offers an annual conference and the opportunity for additional certifications and trainings as well as meeting other users from institutions.

Our setup of this product required almost 50 servers. Planning and implementation phase took several years, but its now fully in production and the old system has now been switched off.

Workday is easy to navigate and keeps everything organized in one place. You can pull up reports for each of your teams and see how you're pacing toward overtime hours, paid time off, etc.

Great, integrated SIS that has many functions and does almost everything on it's own. Very different from Banner, which requires multiple third-party pieces of software to function. CampusNexus has lots of opportunities to customize look, feel and functionality. Any one used to PC programs can feel comfortable with the interface. It has the usual File, Edit, Tools, Setup, Help like menus. You don't have memorize codes like in Banner and there are tons of built-in reports that are easy to filter. We had problems with it sometimes, like any software, but overall I miss using it over Banner. The support was usually quick to respond but a lot of their answers were simply that it was a defect and "might" be fixed in a later update. They allowed for enhancement requests, but none of ours ever made it to production.

The workflow process works, but I believe there is a better solution out there. The changes integrate into our web catalog, but again it seems cumbersome.
